Struggling to Find Peace and Purpose in Life

Hi everyone, I’ve been feeling overwhelmed by my own thoughts lately, and I wanted to share my feelings here. I’m an overthinker—someone who analyzes every little thing. When I see someone struggling in life, I feel deeply for them, and it takes a toll on my mental health. I question karma and wonder why life is so unfair—why some people go through immense suffering while others seem to live with ease. These thoughts often lead me to question my own purpose. Is life about making money, achieving success, and earning crores? Or is it about living a peaceful, modest life, enjoying the little moments? I genuinely don’t know what I want. I see people who are happy despite going through so much, and I admire their free-spirited nature. Yet here I am, letting even minor inconveniences make me sad or anxious. I also struggle with perfectionism and my own desires. For example, I’ve been working on reducing distractions like porn, but when I’m out and see someone attractive, I feel this rush of emotion I can’t control. It’s like I’m not able to focus on one person or one thing—it feels like I need to explore everything before I can settle down. I know I have a great life—better than many, in fact—but I’m not satisfied. I often compare myself to others who seem to have it all: looks, success, or even just a positive mindset. And instead of appreciating what I have, I feel stuck. I wish I could be more free-spirited, live in the moment, and not let overthinking ruin my peace. Why is it so hard to just be content and accept life as it is? How do I stop overthinking, comparing, and being so critical of myself? I’d really appreciate your thoughts or advice.
